Summary

AI summary

README rewritten with clearer positioning and install configs for major clients.

Full changelog

16 tools, one-command setup, works where Slack's official MCP server doesn't.

Slack's official MCP requires a registered app and admin approval, and doesn't work with Claude Code or GitHub Copilot due to OAuth/DCR incompatibility. This server uses your browser session instead — no app registration, no admin, no OAuth.

What you get

  • 16 tools — search, messages, threads, DMs, reactions, unreads, user lookup, send messages. 12 read-only, 4 write-path with MCP safety annotations.
  • One-command setupnpx -y @jtalk22/slack-mcp --setup handles token extraction and validation.
  • Works with everything — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini, Windsurf, and any other stdio MCP client.
  • macOS auto-refresh — tokens extracted from Chrome automatically. No manual rotation.
  • Hosted HTTP mode — for remote deployments (Cloudflare Worker, VPS, Docker).

What changed from v3.2.5

  • README rewritten with clearer positioning and inline install configs for every major client
  • 25 internal files removed (launch ops, commercial automation) — net -2,762 lines
  • Security: fs.chmodSync on token writes, API key redaction, safeParseInt on numeric params
  • Cloudflare worker updated from 11 to 16 tools
  • Editor MCP config for local development

Compatibility

All 16 MCP tools unchanged. No renames or removals. Existing configs continue to work.

Install

npx -y @jtalk22/slack-mcp --setup

Security Fixes

  • Added `fs.chmodSync` on token writes, API key redaction, and `safeParseInt` on numeric parameters to harden security
